@angylynn22, my daughter was in the NICU as well. I understand what you're saying. When my daughter doesn't like to wake up to eat, I just do everything I can to get her to eat. Sometimes she'll only eat an ounce or two before falling asleep; I just offer her an extra ounce or half an ounce the next time I feed her.

@jessicasharp, yea i was told the same. and im super paranoid about everything because she was in nicu for 8 days after she was born so im trying to do everything by the book. @zealous yea thats what i was trying to do but nothing i tried was really working to keep her up

I was told, by my pediatrician, that babies that young can't always wake up to eat. She said it was better to wake them up because sometimes they will sleep through feedings and be super hungry when they wake up.

Don't wake her up, let her sleep. She'll eat when she's hungry. Sleep is important

I can't take it anymore! Haley (yes my 1mth old and no I wasn't able to go through this "joy" of nursing my older daughter, Molly) has been screaming non stop for 6hrs! All she wants to do is eat and I can't have her attached to me all day, everyday! She has wanted to eat every hr on the hr for the past 3hrs! I put her in her room so I don't scream at her but I just can't take it!

lillyb Good job giving ur self a break we all need them. See if maybe she will nurse
delete____ I have to commend you for stepping away, momma!! Everyone reacts to a child screaming differently and
imisssleep123456789 Ugh I remember those days. With both kids I decided to always top them off with formula.

waking up newborn to eat

So my daughter is the hardest to actually wake up to eat every 3 hours. She is only 9 days old! Idk what to do to help her wake up?! And how long should I continue to wake her up for?

babybump_user After dd regained all her weight I let her sleep. She's almost 4 months, weighs 15-16 pounds,
babybump_user Once they regain their birth weight I wouldn't wake them up. Trust me, baby will let you
babybump_user I never woke my son up. Though, he never slept longer than a few hours, if even.

Switching to formula. How often will she eat? She's been asleep for two hours now. Should I wake her up to eat or wait until she gets up on her own?

liz41395 @thenewyorksleepcoach, I nursed the last time so not sure. Just can't do it anymore. She woke up.
thenewyorksleepcoach is she taking the bottle?
liz41395 @thenewyorksleepcoach, yes very well.
